Hôtel Lavaux

I highly recommend this hotel based upon my recent 3 night stay. Surrounded by a hilltop of wine vineyards! Concrete paths through the vineyards to access the small village above the hotel. Staff was pleasant and attentive. The hotel is located on main road running parallel to Lake Geneva to the town of Cully located on the lake. Nearby restaurants and cafes within 12-15 min walk. 31 free parking spaces for guests. Train station is 3 minute walk that runs every hour or walk 12 mins to Cully and take the train running every 30 minutes either east or west to nearby towns. A walking trail near water can be accessed from the train station platform 3 min walk from hotel that takes you on waters edge to the quaint village of Cully with several coffee and pastry shops to enjoy. The dinner was exceptional at the Lavaux hotel restaurant and the wait staff were friendly and attentive. Ask the hotel front desk for free Lausanne pass allowing free train, metro, and bus services to small towns including Lausanne during your stay. I will book a future stay when I return to this region.

Great location for exploring the area for wine, food and lake. Rooms are well equipped and lak view rooms are a must. Staffs are nice. Room has tv, mini fridge and safe box too. Restaurant beside the hotel is of great value too. View from the rooms is great. Breakfast was simple and should be definitely improved.

The location of Hotel Lavaux is truly stunning – nestled among the vineyards with expansive views over Lake Geneva. Our room had a beautiful panoramic window offering a spectacular lake view, and we really appreciated the exterior shutters that provided both privacy from the street and trains, as well as effective sun protection. From the hotel, you can walk straight down to the lake and enjoy a swim – there’s even a floating platform, which makes it ideal for summer. There are also scenic hiking trails through the vineyards that start right behind the hotel. The nearby village of Cully is just a 15-minute walk away and offers a nice range of restaurants. We also liked that the hotel has a snack and drink vending machine available 24/7, a restaurant, and a terrace. Daily cleaning was provided, and small requests (like cutlery for the room) were met without any issues. Now, a few things to be aware of: The biggest downside is the noise. Even though we expected some due to the hotel’s location near a main road and railway, we were surprised by how clearly we could hear trains and cars even with the doors closed. Sitting on the balcony wasn’t very relaxing because of that – we ended up keeping the doors shut most of the time. The bathroom cleanliness was okay but could have been better – not dirty, but not spotless either. The staff was polite, though not particularly warm or engaging. All in all, we’d still recommend the hotel for the location and views – just be aware that it’s not a quiet countryside retreat, and noise from the road and trains is very present.
